Vaccinations are a vital part of your pet’s health care routine. At Al Asifah Veterinary Clinic, we strongly recommend keeping your pet’s vaccinations up to date to protect them from serious, sometimes life-threatening diseases.
Why Vaccinate Your Pet?
- Prevent Dangerous Diseases: Vaccines protect pets against illnesses like rabies, parvovirus, distemper, and feline leukemia—many of which have no cure.
- Protect Other Pets and People: Vaccinating your pet helps prevent the spread of contagious diseases to other animals and, in some cases, to humans.
- Avoid Costly Treatments: Preventive vaccination is much more affordable and less stressful than treating a serious illness.
- Compliance with Law & Travel: Many regions require proof of vaccination for pets, especially rabies, when traveling or boarding.
Vaccination Schedule Basics
Puppies and kittens start vaccinations early, with boosters until about 16 weeks of age. Adult pets need regular boosters based on their lifestyle and health. Your vet will tailor a schedule that suits your pet’s needs.
Core vs. Non-Core Vaccines
- Core Vaccines: Recommended for all pets due to widespread risk (e.g., rabies, distemper).
- Non-Core Vaccines: Given based on specific risk factors like environment, travel, or breed.
